Key | Description
--- | ---
game | Which game server to launch, see above
path | Folder path to game server
port | Web port to use
host | IP or Hostname to listen on
type | Which kind of server to use, can be 'linux', 'windows' or 'wine'
additionalConfigurationOptions | Additional configuration options appended to server.cfg file

serverMods | Mods that always and only will be used by the game servers
auth | If both username and password is set, HTTP Basic Auth will be used
prefix | Text prepended to all game servers name
suffix | Text appended to all game servers name
## How to Use
1. Copy `config.js.example` to `config.js`
2. Change values in `config.js` as described above or in the file
3. Install all dependencies with `npm install`
4. Launch the web UI with `npm start` or install as a Windows Service with `npm run install-windows-service`
## System Configuration
### Windows
Make sure to disable Windows Error Reporting or server control will be stuck on a server crash.
Install as a Windows Service with `npm run install-windows-service`.
Remove previously installed Windows Service with `npm run uninstall-windows-service`.
### Wine
Make sure to disable Wine GUI Crash Dialog or server control will be stuck on a server crash.
This is easiest solved using `winetricks` by running `winetricks nocrashdialog`.
It can also be disabled manually.

## Docker
### Example
To host an Arma 3 x64 server with an existing Arma 3 Server install in subfolder `arma3` with persisted profiles in `profiles` and shared network with host,
```sh
mkdir -p arma3 profiles
touch servers.json
docker run \
--network=host \
--env GAME_TYPE=arma3_x64 \
--env GAME_PATH=/arma3 \
--volume $PWD/arma3:/arma3 \
--volume $PWD/servers.json:/app/servers.json \
--volume $PWD/profiles:"/root/.local/share/Arma 3 - Other Profiles" \
dahlgren/arma-server-web-admin
```
### Required setup
Mount a preinstalled Arma server folder to the container, currently only the linux server is supported.
Set GAME_TYPE to your desired arma server, for example `--env GAME_TYPE=arma3` or `--env GAME_TYPE=arma3_x64`.
Set GAME_PATH to your mounted volume, for example `--env GAME_PATH=/arma3` and `--volume $PWD/arma3:/arma3`.
### Networking
Host preferably needs to share network with the container or all game ports used will need to be forwarded to the container.
Use `--network=host` to use same network as the host machine.
Web Admin UI is available at port 3000.
If you use `--network=host` you can reach the web ui at `http://localhost:3000` by default.
### Persistence
#### Servers
Mount a file at `/app/servers.json` to persist the servers config.
For example `--volume $PWD/servers.json:/app/servers.json` to use a file named `servers.json` in current folder as persistent servers config file.
#### Profiles
If you need to persist the server profiles such as vars file make sure to mount a volume.
For Arma 3 the default profiles directory will be located at `/root/.local/share/Arma 3 - Other Profiles`
